Does Sony Nex have cases too or just tempered glass? Thanks.

Couldn't get them at the shops near my place :(
Yes, Krussell flip cases and some brand plastic fit ones
If buying, use Xperia Lounge for 20% discount on cases at Sony stores.

The camera on M4Aqua look pretty awesome and the battery life was good. Regard to the internal memory I believe Sony is now working hard to reduce as much as possible for their OS. Still snappy and decent. Wonder is this going for outfield would be a steal haha.
Perhaps a non camera M4 Aqua series

Thanks. Will need the case and sp soon. Was told the port over will take between 24 to 48 hours so thought I could continue using my old phones but it took place a few hours after I switch operators.

Sorry for the late upload on the full coverage Xperia M4 Ultra Slim Smoothie Tempered Glass Screen Protector.

Xperia M4 Aqua no matter how you look it's just classy and decent. Just a smaller version of Xperia Z3

I tested a demo unit at Starhub and this one has 3 GB free memory. I think our local version has less bloatware compared to the one that was reported to have only 1GB free memory.

The 4 GB for OS is standard for all the sets I have seen. The rest depends on how much bloatware the telcos installed.

This phone is really one of a kind at this price. IP68, slim and elegant but at half price of flagships. I am tempted between this and Z3+. I am not particular about specs.
The M4 Aqua is like giving you 80% of the Z3+ at half price.

I would think not, when comparing to Z3+.

Benchmarks aside, some numbers do not lie when it comes to real life usage.

Z3+ easily have significant more standby time due to bigger battery and more apps to install with bigger storage memory.

Of course, there are also 16GB sets of M4 when Sony decides to release the dual SIM version of M4.

Yeah the storage is a big difference 32 vs 8 GB.

Also if there is many apps running in the background then the difference in performance will be great.

And the difference in camera performance can be significant.

Anybody has info about the 16GB M4A being released here?

Or will we be ignored again?

So far Sony has not brought in the dual SIM versions of previous models so I don't have confidence that they will this time.

Still hoping for Sony to improve the thermal management on the Z3+ soon.

i heard only US has bloatware issue. SG version should be fine.

agree with the specs. its really premium with mid-range price. this should be really sellable

I guess we can look into Hong Kong market if they did not bring the dual SIM version here. :D

Will M4 get double tap unlock? Maybe in the next update?
My friend's Z3C has that.

I highly doubt that feature will be rolled out to the M4. It would have been included when it was released, if that was Sony's intention.

***Update***

-When an app (stored in the SD card) got updated (via Play Store update), it'll be 'moved' back to phone storage. I got a shock yesterday that my phone storage only have 600+MB. upon investigation, I found those apps I previously moved in SD card, got moved back to phone storage. After I moved them back to SD card, all back to normal.

-and because of the above, I managed to 'discover' the root cause of laggy flash. Because my dolphin browser got updated, it got moved back to phone storage and surprisingly, flash videos played smoothly. now I moved back dolphin browser to SD card flash is laggy again. I suspect performance hit when running apps stored in SD card since the data transfer rate is reduced vs stored in phone memory

We have the same Spidey theme with my Z2 Tablet!

I downloaded the Mad Max Theme for my M4 Aqua

Notice minor scratch on my phone (rear) as it has been naked for almost 3 weeks now. I'm still waiting for sim lim shops to release cases and screen protectors for M4 Aqua
